This was too funny to pass up. We've known all along that Glenn Beck is a two-bit phony. Now we see how Glenn Beck gets himself properly weepy for the cameras: A little Vicks Vaporub.

One might dismiss this as merely a one-off for this shoot. But you can hear Beck himself say:

Beck: I think it's getting used to it -- my eyes are getting used to it.

From regular and continuous use, mayhaps?

The whole scene reminds us that Beck practices his schtick over and over before he performs. Which means he's gotten real good at working up those tears and choking up to say, "I love my country -- but I fear for it!"

I know we're not supposed to just post an article without commenting on it, but it's really all right there in the title. The only way I can really comment is: "lmao"

edit: well actually it looks like they're using it for a photo shoot which I think is common but he definitely implies that he has used it for this purpose before

so this isn't conclusive that he uses it on his show but it's certainly a possibility. I REPORT, YOU DECIDE

CP doesn't necessarily have to have a victim, it's just that 99.9% of the time it does. The thing with pedos is that they've been demonized to be horrible no matter what, and I don't think that's the case.

Oh wow. I thought he was just absolutely batshit insane, guess he's just faking it for money.
